# Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1032 of 13 June 2016 establishing best available techniques (BAT) conclusions, under Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, for the non-ferrous metals industries (notified under document C(2016) 3563) (Text with EEA relevance), Division 1.10.3: Other

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Techniques
Descriptions
Demister
Demisters are filter devices that remove entrained liquid droplets from a gas stream. They consist of a woven structure of metal or plastic wires, with a high specific surface area. Through their momentum, small droplets present in the gas stream impinge against the wires and coalesce into bigger drops
Centrifugal system
Centrifugal systems use inertia to remove droplets from off-gas streams by imparting centrifugal forces
Boosted suction system
Systems designed to modify the extraction fan capacity based on the sources of the fumes which change over the charging, melting and tapping cycles. Automated control of the burner rate during charging is also applied to ensure a minimum gas flow during operations with the door opened
Centrifugation of swarf
Centrifugation is a mechanical method to separate the oil from the swarf. To increase the velocity of the sedimentation process, a centrifugation force is applied to the swarf and the oil is separated
Drying of swarf
The swarf drying process uses an indirectly heated rotary drum. To remove the oil, a pyrolytic process takes place at a temperature between 300 °C and 400 °C
Sealed furnace door or furnace door sealing
The furnace door is designed to provide efficient sealing to prevent diffuse emissions escaping and to maintain the positive pressure inside the furnace during the smelting/melting stage
